    If you seriously argue democrats opposed integration when the democrat president forced southern states to comply and those same opponents went on to leave the party and join the republicans then you’re too ignorant of history to have this conversation. Full stop. I have a lot of issues with the party but you literally have no idea what you’re talking about. It was the GOP plus a handful of “Dixiecrats” that pushed back. The Democratic Party ended segregation.

    Go open a book. I’ve linked strom thurmond’s Wikipedia page to get you started.
